Summer wrap-up

A few extra things from our summer...hard to believe it's nearing the end. 
And even harder to believe that our sweet Kathryn will be starting kindergarten in less than a week. 
Man, the time is flying by far too quickly.

1. Another sink bath for my darling boy. I love this picture, despite the blurriness.

2. Family reunion at my parents cabin. Just a quick picture with all the grand kids. Can you spot Max? He sure looks happy to be in there, right?! The traditional fish pond and treasure hunt were a hit.


3. Maxwell was not too keen on his first trip to the dentist.

4. Just a little friendly competition between the primary children and the bishopric during the ward party for Pioneer Day.

5. This sleeping arrangement didn't last too long.

6. Samuel's birthday dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant.

7. I cleaned the temple one evening while Michael was home with sick kids. This was such a beautiful sight to see as I was leaving. 

8. Kathryn, Max and Sam played daycare one afternoon while I was freezing peaches. It was so cute to see all the work Kathryn put into planning the whole thing.

9. A tea party I was invited to attend.

10. My niece stayed with us for a few weeks while she did an internship for school. It was so fun having her, but we wished she could have stayed longer. She always made time for the kids between work and homework and she was such a great help to me. Before we left, we took her on a tour of the "big" city.


11. Their favorite corner to play in during the summer.

12. Trying on daddy and mommy's shoes.

13. We finally used the rafting trip we bought at the scout auction earlier this year. We had a blast!

14. Camping in the tee-pee one night.
